Last September, a set of voting restrictions known as SB-1 was signed after a flood of protests, peaking with state Democrats flying to Washington to break quorum and delay a vote on the bill. Meanwhile, that same month, a six-week abortion ban known as SB-8 went into effect. The Supreme Court later ruled it would remain in effect even as it wound its way through the court system.And SB-1 faces its first big test Tuesday, as Texas goes to the polls to decide on its governor, lieutenant governor, and a slew of other top positions.What has the fallout been for these two pieces of controversial legislation? We talk Texas and get some answers.Want to support 1A? Give to your local public radio station and subscribe to this podcast. Have questions? Find us on Twitter @1A.
